how to uninstall the zotero compeltely for mac

After downloading Zotero and setting the data storage path, I changed my Mac's username and the corresponding user folder name, then deleted the old user folder. When I reopened Zotero, I got an error message like this picture showed, "unfound the previous folder". After that, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but the version I installed still has the same issue. Now I'm stuck in a loop.

The uninstallation process involved force quitting Zotero and deleting the software from Finder.
  • It's not clear where exactly you're saying your data directory is, but to reset it to the default location, you can open prefs.js in the Zotero profile directory in TextEdit and delete any lines with dataDir or useDataDir.
